Cosplaying to be anti “American Tech”, then kissing the empire hand for blessing.

This is called “neoliberal euro syndrome”.

    Why so many European countries are run by cowards with permanent knee pads on for the US is beyond me.

    The seized server belongs to Italian internet provider Autistici/Inventati (A/I). Dutch police are creating a digital image of its data to hand over to U.S. authorities, as required under the American request for legal assistance.

      required

      request

      One of these things is a lie. It really doesn’t matter which one.

    Sovereign tech is when the US asks nicely for a server seizure in your country and you hand it over.

    This is probably the smaller peanuts tho. Italy debankig A/I on behalf of the US is the serious shit. They could have moved their tech operations from Amsterdam if they still had access to their money. That’s the much more serious sovereignty gap.

      Italy is the cum cleaner, literally.

      Personally i am thinking to go full anti-tech, unplug myself from this dark future that is being cooked while everyone is watching and no one is fighting back.

      Fuck this.

      I mean take your pick, could be anything from the below list.

      Exposing the “Epstein Class” online

      Organizing “anti genocide” rallies

      Sharing awareness about workers rights

      Fighting discrimination and racism

      Campaigns to end the abusing of human rights

      Creating anti capitalist movements

      Whatever the US pedo leader is against

        Don’t forget “Anti-Semitism” by criticizing Israel (although that’s part of the anti-genocide rallies)

      Enjoying a succulent Chinese meal.

      But, more seriously…

      The seized server belongs to Italian internet provider Autistici/Inventati (A/I). Dutch police are creating a digital image of its data to hand over to U.S. authorities, as required under the American request for legal assistance.

      For years, A/I offered free website hosting and email services to thousands of organizations. It attracted the attention of the Trump administration, which regards antifa as a terrorist organization. In late August, U.S. authorities also labeled A/I a terrorist organization, alleging that it had supported antifa. NRC described the move as exceptional, noting that internet service providers are not usually held liable for what their users do.

      Just looks like they were hosting traffic that Trump decided to label as Antifa and therefore Terrorist. No indication of what that traffic actually was.

        As required under fucking what?

        Also, just to belabor the point, trump is Profa.

          MLAT - Mutual Legal Assistance Treaty.

          These treaties have been around since the 80’s, though I doubt they have been abused this way before.

          It might be, but if you trace this from earlier, then I don’t think they are after a specific someone.

          they want data, anything that is not accessible for them before, they want to have it. i mean plantir or any other “mossad agency” is creating digital ID for everyone as we speak, big data llm is capable to identify who and where and what you are in seconds, as long as you feed it data.

            Primarily they are after information on the groups opposing their far right buddies trying to seize control of europe. Maybe some specific stuff too, but I thought that was clear.

            I definitely concede there’s no way of knowing. And going for overkill fits the regime’s MO. Just felt odd, I guess, mainly because they have such an insane intelligence apparatus, actually.

      To this regime, the potential crimes that could be committed would be claiming to be against fascism.

      It then moves on to these criteria: “Common threads animating this violent conduct include anti-Americanism, anti-capitalism, and anti-Christianity; support for the overthrow of the United States Government; extremism on migration, race, and gender; and hostility towards those who hold traditional American views on family, religion, and morality.”

      So if you hate corporations, Imperialism, racism and gender bigotry, and speaking against those who hate anything different from their magic book

      A/I have years of experience with repression, i am pretty sure that encryption was one of the most important factors for them.
